Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Chapter 655 Oddity

Numerous lights flew from the Heavens before floating before all the participants. They were all a token with the characters [Heaven Will] inscribed on them.

Wang Wei held his token and observed it. 'As expected, it's not linked exclusively to anyone.' If someone lost the token, they would lose their position to fight for the Heaven Will. And as everyone figured out this truth, this thing immediately became the most valuable thing to everyone present.

Wang Wei instilled his Divine Sense and received a message on how it functioned. The current token is inactive and requires sacrifices of the devil race's blood to become active.

After Heavenly Dao distributed the tokens, the door to the Nine Devil Gods began slowly opening, and the process took a few minutes.

"Hey, what happened to the two talents the sect got?"

"Cai Song is doing excellent. She's been absorbing some of the Miscellaneous Emperor's Inheritance and developing her talent for puppetry and constructs. She is now preparing to create her own scripture," replied Yan Liling.

"What about that arrogant little guy."

"He's suffering from Heart Devil," said Li Jun.

"Oh, what happened?"

"In just a short 20,000 years, he reached the Primordial Spirit Realm, showing his talent. However, the first thing he did afterward was challenging your projection in the Battle Tower. And as you can expect, he was abused."

Wang Wei left his projection in the Battle Tower and often used it to fight himself to learn and grow. "How come the elders let him do this? Especially in the Primordial Spirit Realm?"

"I guess they wanted to give him a wake-up call and quell his arrogance. But no one expected him to become obsessed with defeating you and creating Heart Demon."

"They need to fix it as soon as possible. These two are the future of the sect." Wang Wei wanted the sect to have more talent and be more prosperous. So, he is prepared to chat with the young lad if necessary to help him deal with his Heart Devil.

The gate finally opened, and he and Di Tian were the first to enter. Wang Wei felt like he had passed through a resistant film, and when he opened his eyes, he was alone and in a different place.

'We're all scattered?' He did not mind as he scanned the surroundings and located the nearest habitat with living creatures. He teleported to a small village full of flame devils. They were a species with a head made of fire with a human body.

Wang Wei snapped his finger and killed the nearest devil before checking his token. Then, he frowned since nothing had happened. He snapped his finger again, killing all hundreds of people in this village. Nothing happened to his token.

"What's going on?' He looked thousand of meters in the distance to the nearest city. He saw one of the Heaven Chosen waving his hand to instantly massacre a city of billions. However, the latter also frowned as he looked at his token since nothing had changed; there was no indication he had completed a kill or that his token was activating.

Wang Wei checked the other place, and it was the same. 'Things are not simple as expected.' He prepared to leave when someone flew from the distance and floated before him, looking at him with intense hatred.

"People from the Myriad Emperor World: have you not enough? Have we not suffered enough for the actions of our ancestors?"

"If you devils had conquered the Endless Void, you would do worse than this," replied Wang Wei.

"But we did not. We lost and paid the price for two Eras. Shouldn't be enough?"

"Maybe, it is. Unfortunately, no one wants to test whether you have truly changed or would revert to your former self after recuperating."

"This is not about preventing our rise. No, this is plain cruelty," replied the devil. "If you guys truly care about that, you should have wiped out our race and taken us out of our misery."

The devil looked at the destroyed village, tears falling down his eyes in the shape of lava. His father, mother, younger brother, and sister lived in that village. He knew the Clean Up was coming and left to find a way for them to survive. And when he returned, it was too late.

The devil did say anything; he looked at Wang Wei with piercing hatred before falling to the ground; he destroyed his soul.

"I agree with you on that," muttered Wang Wei before leaving. He did not create a tombstone for this unknown devil or the village; that would be too hypocritical even for him. He came here as a conqueror and destroyer and accepted that his hands would be full of blood before he came here.

He teleported far away to where he sensed Li Jun and the others.

"What's going on?" asked Li Jun, confused like everyone.

"I don't know, but I'm prepared to find the answer."

Wang Wei floated in the air in a cross-legged position, closing his eyes as the power of fate and Yin-Yang manifested in him. The others protected him and waited.

"Find something," he said a few minutes later. "There is a subcontinent of this world that seemed its own world. Maybe it has something to do with this."

Wang Wei waved his hand to create a passage to that continent, but he did not enter himself since he did not know the danger. A gigantic hand appeared above most of the Nine Devil God's world and instantly caught 90% of the Heaven Chosens before pushing them into that tunnel. Wang Wei and the group waited; they could not see beyond the tunnel, but they could sense the life signs of these people.

While waiting, everybody else's Wang Wei did not catch soon arrive around them, looking at the channel and figuring out what had happened. After fifteen minutes, the group decided it was worth trying but took out their life-saving Talismans, just in case.

Wang Wei found himself in a regular place. The only anomaly was a protective film that rose to the Heavens. He walked to it and touched it.

"What is it?" asked Li Jun.

"We can't enter the Nine Devil God until we fulfill some condition." Wang Wei could feel the power of this film was terrifying; it reminded him of the time he asked Wu Hong to show him the power of an Eternal Emperor.

'But, how is that possible? Heavenly Dao of any world will only reach Second Class Emperor and barely First-Class.'

'It seems that an anomaly did occur in this world," said Yan Liling as she tried to no avail to look beyond this veil.

"The situation is worse than you think. Whoever laid this film should have the power to hide this small world completely," said Wang Wei with a frown. "But they did  not."

"Is it the surviving Devil Gods? But they should be in a weakened state. Even if they sacrificed all their powers, could they do something like this?" added Tie Gang.

"Could they have revived? But that would mean they removed Empress Wu's seal and all the other Emperors who reinforced it," said Li Jun. "Could it be the people from the upper dimension?"

"The revival of the Devil Race does not benefit them since they would need a long time to recuperate and pause a threat to anyone. Plus, even if they did return to the peak, no plane would let them achieve the same thing again," analyzed Yan Liling.

'Time Eater, Undead Phoenix, and Disaster Paragons should have lived in the upper dimension during the True Devil's Catastrophe. They should know the terror of a revived devil race. Furthermore, if they removed the seal, they might offend Wu Hong, who should be quite the deterrent even in her weakened state.

'However, her state can also make them bolder and do things they normally would not.'

Wang Wei realized he did not have enough information to analyze the entire situation since there were too many variables and possibilities to consider. Although the Seven Moons appeared on the surface as greedy, selfish, and power-hungry people, each individual has their own goals, ambitions, desires, and schemes. They can only be considered a loose alliance, which was good for Wang Wei once he tried to dismantle their rule.

However, it also makes it more difficult to calculate some of their thought patterns and motives for doing anything. And if he considers that some of them usually act individually outside of the group's interest, it becomes even more complicated.

While everyone was walking around to determine their next step, a sudden change occurred. Everyone became on guard since they since a power similar to Heavenly Dao. Wang Wei frowned since he knew Wu Hong sealed the Heavenly Dao of the Nine Devil God World.

Above the sky in their isolated area, characters began to appear. The first made a phrase that seemed to be a title, followed by four floating characters hanging above everyone's head.
